Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Kidsgrove and the wider Stoke-on-Trent area who need reliable overnight support. These are ongoing night care opportunities — waking nights or sleeping nights — supporting clients in their own homes so families can rest. You choose who you work with, the hours you accept and the area you cover, and you set your own rates. Right now, 8 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This work suits carers who already have at least one year of professional care experience and who prefer the freedom of self-employment over agency routines. To join you’ll need an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if needed), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments for you, and insurance is included while you work. If you’re used to agency nights but want more control, these roles let you keep the hands-on care you love while taking charge of your time.
Pay is set by you. Typical rates for night care in the area fall around £17–£17.50 per hour, with usual hourly and live-in day ranges shown as £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day respectively. Many carers find night work that fits around family life, day shifts or other commitments; you pick waking or sleeping nights and the frequency that suits you. Remember these listings are for ongoing self-employed opportunities — there’s no single posted shift or promise of earnings.
Most roles are local to Kidsgrove but you can also choose clients in nearby towns such as Tunstall, Alsager, Burslem, Biddulph, Newcastle under Lyme and Hanley Grange and elsewhere in Stoke-on-Trent. PrimeCarers introduces you to families looking for continuity of care, and you decide which introductions to accept. Practical overnight duties typically include personal care, re-positioning, medication reminders, monitoring and providing reassurance through the night — the exact tasks depend on the client’s needs and your agreed hours.
Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your references and DBS (or request help getting one), and complete verification — profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live you’ll receive enquiries from families and can accept or decline work at your discretion. If you’re ready to move away from rigid rotas and retain real, meaningful contact with clients in Kidsgrove, creating a PrimeCarers profile is a quick way to take control of your nights.
